Feel It – Bless It By: Patricia Diesel, CPC How often in life do you stuff down negative emotions or feelings about something going on in your present life or about something that has happened in the past? It’s a common human pattern to stuff things down. We do it to protect ourselves. You’ve done it, I’ve done it, people do it on a daily basis. The challenge is... As we continue to stuff things down in our lives, it accumulates and causes more and more problems for us. I received the above in an email from Nick Ortner, The Tapping Solution, and it got me to thinking… Eventually this accumulation of stuff has no other choice but to come out. When it does come out, it can manifest in many forms. For some people, their outward form manifests as physical clutter. Clutter as we know represents disorder. Therefore, our physical clutter is an outward manifestation, a demonstration if you will, of what we may be feeling inward- ly, i.e., confusion, turmoil, over- whelm. So it makes perfect sense when someone says, “I don’t know where to begin or how to start” when attempting to combat their clutter. The truth is 99.9% of the time, people can get organized. Organization is a skill set that one can learn. It is the emotion- al aspect that prevents them from doing so if not addressed, commonly referred to as an emotional block. For this very reason, it’s impor- tant to take note that in order to deal with your physical clutter it is also necessary to work on your emotional clutter. Other- wise, it has been my experience, that no matter how many times you attempt to get things back in order, if you do not deal with the emotional aspect, the clutter will come back. It is also important to point out, that the clutter will usually come back with a vengeance. It’s as if the clutter is saying, “Hey you, I’m not done here… look at me…we have things to settle and I’m not going away until we do.” This is the time when I suggest you look at your clutter with a fresh perspective. In other words, don’t fear the clutter, Bless it. Approach the clutter with gratitude and thankful- ness. Think of it this way, your outward manifestation is like looking through your very own Looking Glass – it’s mirroring back to help you. Look at it as an opportunity to begin the process of healing so you can begin to move forward in your life.
